Q: "A lot of headlines say oil is flowing through Hormuz again. Did that translate to lower gas prices?" Kevin Hassett: "We've got the Iranian economy on the ropes, and the oil has started to flow through…It should be, like, really almost immediate that we start to see it at the gas pumps."

I’m in a random hotel restaurant, wiped out from yesterday’s demonic air travel and writing projects, before I hit the road again, but Billy Preston is on the sound system and a waiter just brought me a wonderful, life-giving cup of coffee. Things are looking up.

Trump reportedly sought input from Musk’s AI chatbot on military strikes

Wait til the Medicaid cuts kick in January 1. They purposely waited until after midterms. They KNOW how hard that will hit. Every ad Dems show on tv should be about Medicaid cuts.

Neiman Marcus closed its downtown Dallas flagship on Wednesday. The store played a notable role in the history of desegregation in Dallas. Previously, Black shoppers across the US could enter department stores, but they weren't allowed to try on clothes without adhering to certain conditions. 🧵

We’re living through a time when far too many men — including privileged young men at a frat house in an Ivy League university — feel impunity when it comes to attacking women. I don’t think it unrelated to the impunity felt by the man now occupying the highest office in the land.

Black text on white page that reads:

In 1882, 10,000 workers marched up Broadway in the first-ever Labor Day parade. Led by democratic socialists and organized by New York’s unions, they rallied the movement that went on to win us weekends, safety standards, overtime pay, a minimum wage, and social security.

None of those victories were guaranteed. And none are permanent.

We created the first-in-the-nation Office of Worker Power to put the full weight of City Hall behind the people who keep New York running. On Labor Day, we honor the workers who came before us by fighting for the workers who come next.

Happy Labor Day, New York. The future of worker power is ours to build. Learn more at nyc.gov/workerpower.
